I find surveys like this interesting. An organization like MADD does a lot of great work but would be well served to be a little more moderate in their views. If they go out there proclaiming that anyone that drinks 5+ beverages once a month or more is a “heavy drinker” it positions them as being a little nutty in their viewpoints. Really – the question that they should be asking in a survey is how many people drink and drive and how often. Maybe they ask this question too but the problem is that a question like the one posed in this thread gets the expected (and appropriate) response from Joe Public…what a load of crap. Which is too bad for an organization that has good intentions.
